Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) in Wisconsin

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce excess skin and fat on the undersurface of the arm, spanning from the underarm to the elbow. ZELKO Aesthetics specializes in this transformative body contouring procedure, particularly for patients who have experienced significant weight loss.

Why Consider an Arm Lift?

Saggy arm skin can develop after substantial weight loss, diet changes, or aging. Many patients feel self-conscious about loose arm skin that prevents them from wearing short-sleeved clothing. An arm lift surgery offers a solution to restore confidence and create a more streamlined arm appearance.

Key Benefits of Arm Lift Surgery

• Remove excess, hanging skin from upper arms
• Improve arm contours and proportions
• Enhance clothing fit and personal confidence
• Complement weight loss transformation

Arm Lift Procedure Details

During the arm lift procedure, Dr. Zelko administers general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The surgical incision is carefully placed on the inner arm to minimize visible scarring. Excess skin and attached fat are precisely removed to create a smoother, more toned arm profile.

Procedure Preparation

• Avoid aspirin and certain supplements before surgery
• Cease smoking several weeks prior to procedure
• Arrange for post-surgical transportation

Recovery and Expectations

Following the arm lift, patients will wear compression garments to minimize swelling and support healing. Most patients can return to work and light activities within 10-14 days. Full recovery and final results are typically visible around six months post-surgery.

Recovery Guidelines

• Wear compression garments for 2 weeks
• Avoid heavy lifting for 2-4 weeks
• Follow post-operative care instructions carefully

Cost Considerations

The average arm lift cost in the United States is approximately $6,240. Pricing varies based on individual surgical requirements, potential combination procedures, and specific patient needs.
